IM7298 is a triaxial Microtron® variable capacitance accelerometer from Endevco. It is designed to provide high thermal stability and global accuracy for the measurements of relatively low-level accelerations in aerospace and automotive environments.
This document provides step-by-step instructions for installing, checking out, and mounting the Endevco Model 7298 Triaxial Microtron® Variable Capacitance Accelerometer. It includes details on required materials, signal assignments, and mounting surface preparation. The manual also covers a 2g turnover test for verifying zero measurand output and sensitivity before installation.
Mounting requires specific hardware and torque specifications, with options for both screw and adhesive mounting. The document references compatible cable assemblies and connector types, and includes diagrams for proper orientation during testing and installation.
| Output Voltage Range | 0.5 Vdc to 4.5 Vdc |
|---|---|
| Reference Voltage | 2.5 Vdc |
| Mounting Screws | 4-40 x 3/4 inch Socket Head Cap Screws |
| Torque Value | 8 to 10 Ibf-in |
The single-ended output varies linearly from 0.5 Vdc to 4.5 Vdc over the acceleration input range.
The mounting screws should be torqued to 8 to 10 Ibf-in.
The Endevco® Model 3907 Cable Assembly is recommended, featuring a Glenair® Mighty Mouse series 800-018 connector.
